After Kodai Senga struggled for a third consecutive start, failing to get out of the third inning of the Mets ' 3-0 loss in the second game of Sunday’s doubleheader , the right-hander’s role with the club is up in the air. “I’m gonna have a conversation with David, see what’s next,” manager Carlos Mendoza said, referring to Mets president of baseball operations David Stearns . “But, obviously, it’s not good enough.
” Senga allowed three runs on three hits and three walks and a hit batter in 2. 2 innings, pushing his ERA to 9. 00 and WHIP to 1.
950 through 20 innings on the year. “These past few games, I am not able to do my role as a starting pitcher, giving up runs early in the game,” Senga said, speaking through an interpreter, after New York dropped a third straight to Colorado. Would the Mets see if Senga would agree to a minor league assignment as he did at the end of the 2025 season ?
“Like I said, we just got done, but I’m pretty sure we’re gonna have conversations. What are the options here? ” Mendoza said.
